About the Summit

Connecting Women, Capital and Opportunity Across the UK & Africa

The UK–Africa Women in Food & Agribusiness Summit brings together women leaders, entrepreneurs, policymakers, and industry partners across the UK and Africa.

While women are actively building businesses and shaping supply chains in both regions, opportunities to connect, trade, and collaborate remain limited.

This year’s theme, "Building the Agrifood Bridge: Investment, Trade and Collaboration," focuses on strengthening cross-border partnerships, unlocking investment opportunities, and enabling women-led businesses to scale across markets.
